“Back in 2006 I decided I wanted to try backcountry skiing and soon after I ended up contacting Jorgito at Andescross, which was already a very respected guiding company in Argentina. The idea of climbing all the mountains and volcanos in patagonia in the winter time and skiing them on the way down sounded too good to be true. Our first trip with Andescross was to Frey Hut with a couple of my brothers. The skiing conditions were as bad as Patagonia can offer so we ended up 2 days stuck in the hut in the midle of a storm and one day skiing on pure ice… Still, being there in such a remote and beautiful place , shearing the time with such passionated, fun and crazy people was enough to have me coming back for more than 10 years now.
In this period we have climbed and skied the most amazing mountains in the Bariloche area, most Chilean Volcanos, Chalten area and this year we had a fantastic trip to Chamonix in France. We probably have a wish list of places to go to that would require we ski up to our 70′ at least.
I can say Jorgito is a very competent mountain guide, he runs a very professional company, always offering new and more fun places to go wile keeping you on the safe side, but, after all this years friendship is what keeps me coming back. Until we are 70 years old and beyond…”
